In the age of AI, why summon the ghost of Oscar Wilde once again? The Prince once had a happy past, while the Swallow dreams of a happy future in Egypt. But between the Prince’s past and the Swallow’s future, they meet in a city filled with suffering. As the Prince gives away his jewels and gold to help others, and the Swallow gives up his journey to Egypt, everything they possess begins to disappear. Is he now the “Unhappy Prince”?
